Any help would be gratefully appreciated. We are travelling to Northern Cyprus on 27 December arriving at Paphos at approx 17.30 pm. I have read lots of posts and honestly cannot make our mind up should be we hire a car or get a taxi and then hire once we get to Kyrenia. Can any one recommend a licensed taxi firm that go to Paphos and collect - we would want to be taken back on 2 January. Many thanks for any help anyone can give me.

Dont bother with a licensed taxi firm , there are guys you contact on this forum who run a sort of group between them who do it for £140 return to Paphos and they are a lot better drivers than your Taxi firms.

bronzekitten,



My advice based on doing it every time for years is to hire a car in Paphos and use it for your holiday and to take you back to the airport. You will spend shedloads of extra money dealing with taxis etc then having to hire a car in the north - which you are not allowed to take into the south. If you hire a GC car you can take it all over the island, which if you have time I'm sure you'll want to do. The only extra is insurance for the north. You will be responsible for recovery if you have a problem in the north, but the cost of this - even if it ever happened - would be nothing like the extra cash you would fork out on long taxi rides and plus car hire in the north.
